Definitions

  • Multi-color printing presses have a so-called register arrangement, which is formed from a plurality of individual registers. each this register is used to adjust a printing cylinder for the application of a Printing ink on the carrier medium to be printed.
  • CMYK complementary metal-oxide-semiconductor
  • C cyanate
  • M Mangenta
  • Y Yellow
  • K Black
  • Raster marks work. These raster marks need a white background and are mostly rectangular boxes, which are printed with one ink each are.
  • the invention proposes a process in which the Print result recorded optically and as an actual print image with a previously saved one
  • the target print image is compared, in the event of a discrepancy a corresponding one between the target print image on the one hand and the actual print image on the other
  • the registers are set automatically.
  • the printing result becomes continuous in the current printing process checked.
  • a target print image is stored as a benchmark, that it is necessary to achieve with the current printing process.
  • the print image actually generated by the printing press this is optically recorded and as an actual print image with the specified target print image compared. If this comparison reveals that there is a discrepancy between the predetermined target print image and the actual print image recorded in the current printing process is present, the register setting of the printing press becomes Correction of this deviation set accordingly.
  • Another significant advantage of the method according to the invention is that Justified the fact that also caused by a starting process Reject production can be reduced dramatically. Trials have shown that a reduction in scrap production of up to 90% can be achieved. The reason for this enormous reduction in reject production is almost completely dispensing with manual register setting even within the scope of a Starting process of the printing press.
  • the starting point is also here predetermined target print image, the receipt of which is described in more detail below will be. This target print image is with the actual print image, which during the Starting process is optically detected, compared and the resulting Deviations are, as described above, by a corresponding one Register setting compensated.
  • the invention proposes a method that is ongoing Printing process a constant control of what is generated by the printing press Print image carried out and using a predetermined target print image an automatic register setting in such a way that deviations between the actual print image actually generated by the printing press on the one hand and the specified target print image on the other hand be kept as low as possible.
  • the method according to the invention thus helps simultaneous achievement of a desired printing result, the Reduce scrap production.
  • the use of raster marks is for the Implementation of the method according to the invention is not necessary, so that with the procedure a register setting also for such printing processes in is advantageously possible, the use of due to the printed image Exclude grid marks.
  • the registers the printing press manually in a one-off start-up process can be set and the result of this register setting Print results are recorded optically and saved as a target print image. Intended is therefore to carry out a one-off start-up process manually, the for The print result that was found to be good is then saved as the target print image and as Reference size is used for further printing. It is advantageous it is possible to start the process to determine the target print image and separate subsequent printing processes later. So can For example, a start-up process to determine the target print image is carried out are, this target print image not only following the starting process Printing process, but also subsequent printing processes at different times is available in the same way.
  • the process according to the invention is advantageous in short print runs, since the target print image specification once recorded and stored again and again used and to achieve a reproducible result again can be used.
  • the Printing machine after any necessary conversion using of the existing target print image as a benchmark within a comparatively time and material-consuming start-up process set become.
  • Another advantage is that the printing results are two from each other Printing processes carried out separately, using the same target print image as a reference variable use, are almost identical, so that quality deviations in Print result even when separated from one another or on different ones Printing operations performed printing machines advantageously not occur.
  • the individual registers are activated the printing press not by the number of registers used is limited, so that almost regardless of the number of to be set Register with the inventive method a very fast Register setting can be achieved automatically.
  • the use is manual Work steps to be carried out reduced to a minimum, so that in Difference from the state of the art in the manual work to be performed can be reduced per printing process.
  • the optical detection takes place both the target print image and the actual print image using an image capture unit, preferably a scanner.
  • an image capture unit preferably a scanner.
  • Another one is also conceivable here Type of optical image capture, for example using a digital camera.
  • the only decisive factor is that the actual printed image is recorded in such a way can be that with regard to the quality characteristics decisive for the printing result
  • Corresponding data usable by a computer unit are supplied become.
  • the actual print image is preferably acquired here line by line, it does not matter that the continuously from the Rather, printing machine issued print media per print image it is sufficient to take the optical print image acquisition at any time to start and depending on the printing speed at a time finish, which is determined by the fact that the print carrier over the length at least a print image in the printing direction of the machine on the image capture unit was passed by.
  • the computer unit connected to the printing press can then the captured print image with respect to the actual print image start or Convert the actual print end so that the desired actual print image for the further implementation of the method according to the invention is available.
  • Target print image and actual print image at least one test area within the print image defined and a comparison between target and actual print image is only based on of this test area.
  • Test areas Such areas are called referred to as so-called test areas, the use of test areas den has great advantage that the inventive method much faster can be carried out.
  • a comparison test between target and actual print images delivers sufficiently precise results based on the test areas so that a Comparison test between target print images and actual print images only on the basis of predefined ones Test area is sufficient to avoid deviations in the desired print result to recognize and make appropriate register settings.
  • the test area with regard to their size and position within the printed image is defined in such a way that this comprises at least one color boundary running in the printed image.
  • a meaningful comparison criterion is particularly suitable for the course of a Color limit, because blurring in the printed image is clearly detected on the basis of this limit and specifications for readjustment of the registers can be calculated exactly can be.
  • the inside of the Color boundary test performed a color boundary analysis, wherein the colors of the printed image detected at the color limit with regard to their composition analyzed from the individual inks in the register become.
  • the aim of the color boundary analysis is that with the optical image acquisition recognized color composition of the printed image in the applied printing inks disassemble. With the color boundary analysis, a "back calculation" is found the printing inks used instead. A comparison of the actual print image and the target print image can now use these inks determined by the color limit analysis be carried out, with a comparison both in terms of by the respective printing color to be produced as well as with respect to the intensity can take place.
  • a color boundary analysis it can be the result of a color boundary analysis be that the print image generated by a certain ink is incorrectly positioned is applied to the print carrier and, for example, in relation to the the color boundary in the test area is too far to the left.
  • a register setting can be such that the print image produced by this printing ink in its Position is shifted slightly to the right, so that in the following The correct printing of the respective print image takes place, which in turn can also be recognized by a color boundary analysis.
  • the registers were set both in the direction of rotation and transverse to it. It is therefore possible that print images generated from the printing sleeves arranged in the respective registers both in the production direction of the printing press, i.e. in the direction of rotation as well as crosswise to adjust so that printed images with respect to each Point can be set in a Cartesian coordinate system.
  • the registers can advantageously be provided be the deviation determined by a color boundary analysis by one or to determine several points in the Cartesian coordinate system exactly and from there to calculate the readjustment of the register.
  • an upstream Process step determines the color intensity of the printing inks in the register. This is preferably done by a separate imprint of the individual colors in the register. These can then be obtained from the image acquisition unit recorded and stored in terms of their intensity as a reference variable become.
  • This upstream process step is preferably carried out at a only carried out reduced speed of the print carrier, so that the production of rejects can be kept low. Just like the one-off start of the printing press for determining a target print image is also the determination the color intensity only once. The results obtained can, however, continue for a variety of downstream printing processes be used.
